Illinois-based Karmak, Inc. is celebrating its 25th year of providing business management software systems to heavy duty truck parts distributors, dealers, manufacturers, service shops, lease/rental facilities and fleets.

Incorporated on Dec. 31, 1981, Karmak began in response to the need for useful software to handle the specific needs of the heavy duty trucking arena. Schien Body and Equipment employees Richard Schien and Alan Weller collaborated to design and build a comprehensive software system from the ground up. Schien soon formed Karmak and began marketing a complete computer system to heavy duty businesses from their Carlinville, Ill. location.
In July 1997, Karmak purchased RINFO Inc., and with it acquired the INFO 5 heavy duty business system for truck and trailer dealers. RINFO became the second branch of Karmak, and is located in Springfield, Mo.
Today, Karmak supports more than 500 customers at 1,800 locations throughout the United States, Canada and Latin America. The employee-owned company now includes almost 200 specialists in areas such as inventory control, service shop management, accounting, and new and used truck sales, as well as information technology and systems engineering.
